Jacques (Alexis Martin), a stage actor with significant gambling debts, runs away to the country to avoid a dangerous creditor. In the middle of a snow storm, he arrives at the isolated farm of Simon (Gilles Renaud), with whom he has no choice but to accept a forced labour “contract” to help him deliver his harvest of flowers of the cannabis plant. Despite a rocky start, Jacques and Simon gradually begin to like one another. The friendship of the two men is disturbed by the appearance of Francesca (Emmanuelle Lussier-Martinez), a resourceful young woman who becomes essential to the venture. The fragile harmony they experience will be disrupted when Patenaude (Luc Picard), Jacques’ creditor, bursts upon the scene, come to collect his due.
